310 Tung Chau Street is a tenement building in Sham Shui Po. Three Vietnamese from the same province share a subdivided flat. Unemployment, drug addiction, and arguments brew and breed incessantly in this heated environment.

"5 cops only in Sham Shui Po tonight!" PC46700 said. In the deep of the night, a police officer was dispatched to an old building where he found a Vietnamese drug addict in a partitioned room. His investigation was inexplicably filmed by a would-be documentarian, which led to a conversation with the police constable recollecting his early days and involvement with the Vietnamese refugees more than twenty years ago. An apparently unrelated group of people had this unexpected encounter when the majority of the police force gathered at Mongkok during the Umbrella Movement.

Ka-long, a wanderlust graduated from the University of Hong Kong, always dreams of backpacking to many countries with his guitar.

As a result, the film widens its scope to the geo-political differences between Hong Kong, Taiwan and China.

The homeless are not without "homes," but they lack the rights to protect their most basic human dignity and are arbitrarily evicted. The protagonist, Granny Lai Yuen-King, was a rare elderly scavenger among them who possessed a beautiful soul but ultimately died without dignity on the streets. This short film was dedicated to all the homeless.
